Frequenly asked questions:
Q: Why did you change the fondant formula?
A: We are committed to continuously improving our products to provide the best possible experience for our customers. After extensive research and feedback, we have enhanced our fondant formula to offer superior workability, a smooth finish, and better shelf life. Ensure consistency and reliable performance, even in various climatic conditions.
Q: What's different about the new formula?
A: The new formula features an optimized ratio of ingredients, including a slight increase in glucose and gum additives. This gives the fondant exceptional pliability and stretch, an extended working time before becoming too soft, an ultra-smooth texture once kneaded, and improved moisture retention to prevent cracking or drying out.
Q: Why does the fondant seem crumbly or hard when I first open the package?
A: The initial hardness is intentional and serves two important purposes:
- It allows the fondant to withstand temperature fluctuations and humidity during storage and transportation, ensuring it arrives in optimal condition.
- It provides an extended window for sculpting, rolling, and modeling the fondant without it becoming too soft or sticky prematurely.
Q: How do I achieve the desired pliable texture?
A: Simply knead the fondant for 2-3 minutes. This activates the specialized gums, redistributes moisture, and breaks down any sugar crystallization, transforming the fondant into a smooth, pliable consistency.
Q: Is the initial crumbly and hard texture permanent?
A: No, the crumbly and hard texture is temporary and easily reversed through kneading. It's a physical state designed to enhance the fondant's performance, not a defect or issue with the product.
Q: Will the new fondant still provide a smooth finish?
A: Absolutely. Once kneaded, the new formula produces an exceptionally smooth, silky texture that dries to a flawless matte finish on cakes and decorations.
Q: Can I still use the new fondant for cookies/biscuits?
A: Yes, with some minor adjustments to your technique. For cookies/biscuits, let the fondant soften slightly at room temperature before rolling, and lightly dust with confectioner's sugar to prevent sticking.
